Unravelling the proteome of wool: Towards markers of wool quality traits

Journal of Proteomics, 2012
With ongoing efforts to make wool more competitive alongside other fibres, notably synthetics, there is a need to obtain a better understanding of the relationship between protein composition and characteristic wool properties to assist sheep breeding programmes.

Genetic correlations between wool traits and meat quality traits in Merino sheep

Journal of Animal Science, 2017
Genetic correlations between 29 wool production and quality traits and 25 meat quality and nutritional value traits were estimated for Merino sheep from an Information Nucleus (IN). Genetic correlations among the meat quality and nutritional value traits are also reported. The IN comprised 8 flocks linked genetically and managed across a range of sheep

Wool quantitative trait loci in Merino sheep

Small Ruminant Research, 2008
Abstract With the aim of identifying QTL affecting wool production and wool quality in Merino sheep, specific regions of chromosomes 3, 4, 11 and 25 were analyzed in eight half-sib families, with an average of 63 offspring per sire. Greasy fleece weight and body weight were recorded at hogget and adult shearing.

Correlation Analysis of Microsatellite DNA Markers with Wool Traits in Liangshan Semi-fine Wool Sheep

HEREDITAS, 2006
Eighteen microsatellites on chromosomes 1, 2, 3, 9 were studied to detect their genotypes in 206 individuals in a Liangshan Semi-fine Wool Sheep nucleus breeding population. A GLM procedure was used to analyze the effects of these 18 microsatellites on wool traits. Results uncovered 7 loci that had a significant impact on wool traits. Genotypes of that

Genetic parameters for wool traits, live weight, and ultrasound carcass traits in Merino sheep

Journal of Animal Science, 2017
Genetic correlations between 29 wool production and quality traits and live weight and ultrasound fat depth (FAT) and eye muscle depth (EMD) traits were estimated from the Information Nucleus (IN). The IN comprised 8 genetically linked flocks managed across a range of Australian sheep production environments.

Assessing Wiltshire Horn-Merino crosses. 1. Wool shedding, blowfly strike and wool production traits

Australian Journal of Experimental Agriculture, 1994
Wiltshire Horn-Merino (WH-M) crosses of 1/2, 5/8 and 3/4 Merino content were compared over 10 years for wool shedding, blowfly strike frequency and wool production traits. Merinos and 1/2 Merino WH-M were compared over 4 years. For wool production traits, 1/2 and 5/8 Merino WH-M ewes were compared to Border Leicester-Merino (BL-M) ewes over 2 years ...
